Last night I showed no signal for 18-1.  I hope nothing critical is broken.

Mother Nature and the storms early Wednesday (lightning damage). No ETA yet.

At least if TWC and SBG could reach an agreement then HD cable would be an alternative! :)

Well, I just thought I would throw that out since Comcast, the nation's biggest cabletv provider,  does offer SBG HD locals and TWC doesn't. :mad:

If you had the most basic of cabletv as an option, maybe the OTA being down would give you an option to getting the HD locals.

Right now, if the OTA is down, no one gets the digital or HD signal.
That is sort of ridiculous to me, at least.

It is my understanding that cabletv subs would still get the HD signal, anyway, as the they do when the OTA is off with other network stations.
So if the WB/CW-HD was piped into the TWC cable system to begin with, there is a way of getting it nonetheless. :)

TWC subs would only get it if they feed TWC by fiber.  I think only 3 HD stations in Milwaukee are feeding by fiber.
